Rock Island Blues – Furry Lewis
In Spanish tuning

Got the Rock Island blues, waiting on the Rock Island train
Rock Island blues, waiting on the Rock Island train
Got a girl in Texas and I'm scared to call her name

Don't you wish your girl was long and tall like mine
Don't you wish your girl was long and tall like mine
Lord she ain't good looking, but I 'clare she takes her time

Bab-aaay, where you stay last night?
Baby, baby, where you stay last night?
Lord you didn't come home till the moon was shining bright

I'm gonna wash my face in the Gulf of Mexico
I'm gonna wash my face in the Gulf of Mexico
I'm gonna eat my breakfast a thousand miles below

Wonder will my suitcase hold my clothes?
Wonder will my suitcase hold my clothes?
I ain't got so many, but I got so far to go

I ain't got no woman, I ain't got no lady friend
I ain't got no woman, ain't got no lady friend
I ain't got nobody to say, Furry, where you been?
